Los Angeles Lakers v Miami Heat
The Miami Heat possibly might be wanting to sign Cousins for a playoff run, but if the Miami Heat want to sign him then they would have to cut a player off their team.

Toronto Raptors Will Go After Giannis Antetokounmpo in Free Agency Reports


Giannis Antekokounmpo has been wanted by so many teams. The Toronto Raptors have been wanting Giannis Antekokounmpo ever since they lost their star player Kwahi. Giannis Antekokounmpo is also nicknamed "The Greek Freak" and also he has great talent but I'm saying once Giannis brother gets drafted he gonna surpass Giannis because Giannis brother is basically like him but he has a good Jumpshot, so imagine the brother as a great dunker and he has a good jumpshot.

NO.pelstrailblazers.961.jpg
This Season the Pelicans OWNED the Portland Trailblazers. Portland Trailblazers point guard wasn't in both of the games but even if he played it wouldn't make any differences because before the All Star break the Pelicans beat the Trailblazers 138-117 even with their star player Damian Lillard playing. The Pelicans dominated the Trailblazers head to head so they got an inside track of a spot in the play-offs. The NBA has decided to play out the remainder of the season, the Trail Blazers are favored in Las Vegas to get the eighth seed. Why? The NBA has determined that winning percentage. not head to head tiebreakers will determine who will be the higher seed if teams are tied in the number of games back.

PIck A Path



This week we got the chance to create a pick a path quiz DLO. In mine I did a quiz about the NBA. My quiz is basically telling you how much you know about the NBA.
